A year later and I L-O-V-E my boobs... So do the boys!! HAHA!! Never thought I'd say that. Only two notes: when i flex my pectorals i look scary weird and when i put my arms anywhere but to the side they look really far apart, but heck - my boobs looked terrible from every angle before so trust I aint complainin!!

A little worried
I think my doctor did a great job, but there are some things i dont like. First, if i have my arms in any position other than at my sides my boobs look too far apart. My ribcage is huge so here is nothibg the doc could have done, but still i feel a tad self conscious when i am "with" someone.
The other more concerning thing is i have very slight double bubble. You wouldn't notice it unless i pointed it out but then youd see it. I am praying nothing gets worse, otherwise i will need revision surgery and i dont want that!! Lastly, the lipo on my backside came out with lumps and dents that, after 5 months, likely should have subsided. I am not posting pictures because there is bound to be those people that go "omg you poor thing that is soooo noticeable" or those other people that tell their personal horror story not realizing their scaring the crap out of me. So, no pics. Right now, if nothing gets worse, id still say that there was an overall improvement to my body.

Hey PinchPoke, I too feel like my girls are far apart. Very disappointed since the PS told me that with the size I picked I would have a nice cleavage. After talking to the nurse and my husband about my concerns, they both said the same thing, that some people just don't have the "extra" center breast skin to get that close cleavage that other women have. I'm thinking that my PS should have seen that in the consult and then I would not have gotten my hopes set so high. But the good thing is I can still play the girls up or down, since I only told 1 person. I am sure when you look in the mirror you can see all the imperfections (as I can see mine) but they are not noticeable to others. Esp. when twisting around to see the results in the mirror. I am sure you are looking amazing, I saw the last photos you posted and you really do look great! I can really notice a difference in before pics and after pics. Go back to PS if you feel he needs to explain some things. Hope you are feeling better about it all soon.

Im sort of taking the stance that improvements overall are good enough and as long as nothing goes wonky i can live with the imperfections. You tata's look nice and close from the pics but i know they were only 11 days out. How do you feel about them other than the distance from the cleavage? Thanks for sharing your experience with me and your encouragement. It helps to know we arent alone right!

I'm with ya on the weight loss, girl! Moving to a new state, finishing my Masters, and starting a new job have NOT been good for my stress eating tendencies!! You look great, how's the size holding up?
July 19, 2014
I can't imagine! That would be way tough to eat healthy through. The size is a D - I am so happy with them :)
How are you doing at 2 months?
July 19, 2014
Was the $10,000 for just the boobs or for the lipo as well?
And how many CCs did you get?
What size are you now?
July 19, 2014
It was for BA and lipo. Would have been probably $2-3k cheaper without. I went with 600/550 CC BUt what that should have no bearing on your CC decision as you have different chest dimensions. I have a huge chest wall. I suggest you do a free consult with my doctor - Dr. Daniels - in Long Beach. Asymmetry needs an honest and skilled doc.
Congrats on your decision - it has made such a huge difference for me and I wish the same for you :) and smart doing it young too

Picking a doctor when you have asymmetric boobs is a lot harder. I live over 3 hours from long beach so that would be hard going to dr. Daniels.
July 20, 2014
Yeah it's tough. I was asymmetric so I know, which is why I recommended him. I'm only 40 miles away it was an hour and a half for me. Just wanted you to be aware of a fabulous doctor for asymmetry
July 20, 2014
So you got silicone? Did you get high profile? That's what I'm planning on getting? Are you a size D now?
July 20, 2014
Yes to all. My best advice is do your research. Learn about everything (incision placement, implant type, placement, risks) and all the pros and cons. I know a ton and will share as much as you like. If every doc is telling you to get a lift (something commonly recommended for asymmetrical boobs) I would strongly encourage you to see my doctor for at least a free second opinion. He was the only one who said I didn't need a lift. If you read my review you'll see my experience. He dissected my pectoral muscle on one side in a certain way and it made my nipples come out less uneven than they were before. If I had gone with other doc I'd have bright red scars and be out $3k. And not look any better for it. Just sharing with you since I know how much more difficult the search for a doctor is for those if us with asymmetry. I was a nervous wreck about my nipple areola complex being majorly misaligned and I am so happy now. Of course I am still healing - things could 'take a turn' but in terms is the job the PS did it's five stars. Good luck to you on your journey. We all have your back!!

Gosh...they are looking amazing!!! You go girl!!
July 19, 2014
Thanks so much!!! How are things going with you? Haven't seen an update in a couple weeks - any changes?
July 20, 2014
Pinch...been sick...combination of too many things going on in my life, just realized I haven't been updating. Still looking good but sickness sure didn't agree with my face!! Will post soon, but your boob job put the idea in my head to have them done...all because yours look sooo good!! They are perfect...Jill
July 20, 2014
Awe sorry to hear you're sick Jill! That's the worst. Stress in life can Definitely lower the immune system.
Thanks for the compliment on my boobs!! They are a wonderful thing :) I can't believe I went from so embarrassed of my chest to proud of it!! My doc is a genius!
Feel better!!
